LONDON, October 6th.-Brighps latest
crusade against the Nationalist shows him
more distinctly than ever to be an out-and-
out supporter of the movement Neither
Lord Harrington nor Chamberlain stands
as nearly allied to Salisbury's policy OF
resolute action as Bright He has
no desire to urge the Ministry TO
bring on their land bill at the next
session, and he disappoints his old
friends by making no suggestions of

criticised by Sir Rowland Blennerhassett,
one OF the most enlightened members of the
Liberal Unionist party, who ascribes to il

The inquiry into Head Constable
Whelahan's murder has produced pro-
| found sensation, the effect of which has
| not yet been fully realized. The evidence
of informer Cullinan may have been
| twisted, or not, to fix up Dillon's
| responsibility of encouragement of the
outrage. The affirmative is maintained
with some show of reason by the
Nationalist party, because Cullinan has
been employed by the police for ten years.
i Consequently it was an easy matter for

shall tell against the Parliamentary party.
Nevertheless, Cullinan's testimony causes
some sensation, because it shows that the

| their solidity. This view finds confirrna-
ton IN the report that the police at Killar-
ney had been placed in possession of the
programme of the Kerry moonlighters.

The Socialist Conference.
BERNE, October 6th.-The Socialist Con-
ference at st. Gall closed to-day. The gen.
eral result of the deliberations it is believed
will be to consolidate the Socialist party

luton protesting against anarchism.
